Paul D. Sept 2023

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked: Campsite, pitches and location were great. Friendly owners and always helpful.

Disliked: Toilets and showers were dirty, with cob webs around ceilings, shower cubicles and light fittings. No toilet rolls. Plastic shower mats were broken. Generally very tired and in all in need of urgent modernisation and updating.

I would not go back here.

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked: The pitches are big and very private, with large hedges surrounding them.

Disliked: The toilet and shower facilities are terrible. They are very crubby and clearly not cleaned properly. Some shower heads and sink taps are broken. The showers cubicles are tiny and full of cobwebs, which have clearly not been removed for months. The whole place needs a good scrub and a proper clean.

Morgan D A. Sept 2023

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked: Fabulous location next to the river and a small village on the other side of the bridge. Village had a bar (try the Grimbergen), a food shop (try the saucision) and the bakers. There was also a restaurant but it was shut when we were there. On the site the pitches are large and generally shaded. Some might say it is a little bit tired but I would charming and the host, Mr T, is a lovely lovely man. Watch out if he offers you a free cocktail - boom! You can buy breakfast and he can knock up an omelette but we had our own food. We did however sample his beer and an excellent bottle of chinon. We were there on the way to to the rugby and he set up chairs and we all watched France win their first game. Great memories. Ended up staying an extra night.

Disliked: Nothing. A few cobwebs here and there but they added to the charm.

Would certainly use again should we be in the area.

Local attractions

Coming for the countryside? Camping de La Motte is right on the edge of the Loire-Anjou-Touraine regional park and within an easy 45-minute drive of the Brenne's landscape of forests and lakes. Both of these areas are full of bike trails, footpaths and bridleways, with the Voie Verte that runs between Richelieu (20 minutes) and Chinon (30 minutes) particularly recommended by your hosts. On arrival in Chinon, stop for a couple of hours to stroll along the riverbanks and take in the local landscape from the top of its Royal Fortress before carrying on to the equally impressive Château de Montsoreau (45 minutes), an art gallery in a scenic setting close to the confluence between the Vienne and Loire rivers. And for the rest of your trip? You might like to spend it vineyard hopping through the Loire's wine-growing areas (roughly 30 minutes), exploring the narrow streets and medieval monuments of Tours old town (45 minutes) or taking the kids off somewhere for a treat – a trip to Futuroscope (45 minutes) perhaps, if they're on their very best behaviour…
